Being negative and realistic are completely two different things. I warned everyone about Coastal last year and I knew the storm was coming after that regional game.

15% of the way there.

The one tonight would have went out of two baseball fields ....so it should count as 2.

I was obviously exaggerating a good bit, but he did piss all over one.

I don't think it traveled over it. It passed right on the side of it I believe, and travelled well past. I still don't think it was heading down as it crossed the intimidator.
I stand corrected. It did, in fact, go over it.

After speaking with Antoine's father a few months back, and how he expressed from his son's POV how CPM treats people who put the ball in the air...I will only give Deichmann 15+ not 20 though.
Now why might that be? Possibly because a lot of guys with average bat speed start swinging for the fences and instead are easy outs. Can't blame PM for that mindset. If GD is dialed in and feasts on some average pitchers he can hit 20. Unlike some 180 lb guys he has a big frame and + bat speed without having to swing out of his cleats. If Slaughter, Smith and/or Woley remain productive it can happen.

Will Greg Deichmann hit 20 bombs this season?
He's already hit 4, and we aren't out of February yet.
The bats might be dead, but any cat who can hit a ball 500 FEET* can obviously supply his own power.
* I'm giving him the roll.

He's seeing the ball very well and he has a very quick bat speed. He's going to his a lot of HRs this season. 20 is very doable.

He looks like Matt Clark out there from 2008. Of course Clark benefitted from the old composite bats.

It's evident based on the teams that we have put out since the BBCore Era started. No big time homerun hitters, or big fly ball hitters. You can see it in CPM's recruiting as well.
I agree with this for the most part, however, Deichmann might be an exception. He set the all time HR record while at Brother Martin. Also led the state for 3 years in HR's .

Don't think that... Look what happened to Bregman when a minor league coach changed his swing a touch.

eh, you have to look how Bregman was used. He was protected in the lineup his freshman year by Mason Katz, who had 17 homeruns and 70 RBIs in 2013. It was Bregman's and Laird's job to make sure they got on base for Katz. After Mainieri saw what happened to us in the CWS in 2013 (having well hit balls die in the outfield time and time again), he changed his strategy and wanted players to basically play the season like they'd have to play if they made it to Omaha.
Last year kind of changed some of that with the introduction of new baseballs with lower seams. Power numbers went up across the country. TDA Ameritrade is still somewhat of a wasteland for home runs, but there were 10 home runs hit in 17 games played. Deichmann also has more raw power than any player we've had since probably Blake Dean and Ryan Schimpf, and he might honestly have more power than both of those players. Matt Clark was probably the last player with comparable power.
Bregman does have power but he also sprays the ball to all fields and is a great contact hitter. Like I said, in 2013, we were not short on power with Katz protecting Bregman. In 2014, our hitting was not reliable, and we really needed Bregman to get base hits more than trying to hit home runs. His final year in 2015, he hit 9, which isn't a small number with the BBCOR bats, and he also hit 22 doubles.
But realistically speaking, 15 homeruns is a lot of homeruns at the college level. If you think about it, 15 homeruns in about 70 games played (including post season) amounts to about 35 in a 162 game season. These bats they use now don't have any more pop than a wooden bat.

I hope he does. If we make it back to Omaha, I think we have to keep Manieri. There's no way he gets fired if we make it. Even if we get sent home. Firing a baseball coach and having to start a search isn't something LSU can handle right now.
Please explain how you can turn this thread into something about PM's job security. Dude is highly successful and just got a raise and extension. He isn't going anywhere even if we don't make it to the Supers.
